Thibault’s Polakatsikes 1020 AC, 8 miles per hex
This beautiful piece is Thibault’s final Polakatsikes map. It takes all of the development of the previous maps of the area, including maps of the Hinterlands, and brings it all together into a single map. While the conversion of Polakatsikes was very faithful to the older Grid maps, in fact this was the first completed map of the Hinterlands at this scale.
The date was also advanced to 1020 AC, presumably to match the Mystaran Almanac for that year, although unfortunately that project was never completed.
Although the finished map dates to January 2005, in fact the lower half of the map was largely complete as early as August 2004.
Fan-made Map by Thibault Sarlat (January 2005)
This is an original map created by one of Mystara’s excellent fan cartographers. For more information on the cartographer, including a gallery of all their maps, see also Appendix M: Mappers of Mystara.
